India, the second-largest producer of textiles and
garments, has been eyeing to be a sourcing hub, riding on the back of a skilled
labor force and opulence of cheap raw materials. With Indian Textile Industry
accounting for a quarter of the global spindle capacity, its potential size is
speculated to reach US$23 billion by the end of this decade.

generating sector in the country after agriculture, Textile Industry has got a
huge bearing on the country’s economy. Hence, a holistic development of this

and all related specifications thereof.

place, the cost of labor and wages will get balanced. Based on these FTAs, the
exports could be channelized to the target countries.
